LOL.. IG lady now huh?? [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif[/img] OK.. I have been called worse [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]
Ok.. In regards to your IG.. I assume that it is a young ig and most likely has not been definately sexed either way at all also due to such possibly ??? With that in mind here's my .02 on the issue at hand...
Sounds like the IG when being placed back into it's cage took note of the mirror and what is was seeing in there also.. a reflection of self.. which in the Ig's mind was another Ig, not itself. One of the owrst things to do is to place a mirror in front of or in position of an Ig's cage so that they see a reflection of another IG aka themselves. Especially if this is a male IG ! Males do NOT get along with other male Igs as a rule and will go into a full defensive/attack thing if they come into contact with another one.including just seeing them even..like in a mirror.
So with that in mind it actually sounds like your ig was not actually being aggressive towards the person trying to place it into it's cage but actually reacting to the image of the "other" ig it saw and since the hand that was carrying it was what had placed it near the other ig [ in it's mind] is why it tried to bite the hand is all. Make sense ?
NOTE : LOSE THE MIRROR !
Hope that helps...
